2007 Symbol Pilothouse Trawler

The 2007 Symbol 45 Pilothouse Trawler, known as KNOT QUITTERS, is a prime example of Symbol Yachts' commitment to building reliable and comfortable long-range cruisers. This vessel is powered by a robust Caterpillar C7 450hp diesel engine, complemented by a Yanmar 4JH4E 55hp get-home engine, ensuring safety and redundancy on extended voyages. With a semi-vee hull and Wesmar stabilizers, she promises a smooth and stable ride, making her ideal for coastal exploration and liveaboard use. Symbol Yachts have a strong reputation for their solid construction and thoughtful design, and the Pilothouse Trawler models are particularly appreciated for their spacious interiors and efficient layouts. KNOT QUITTERS offers two staterooms and two heads, both featuring separate stall showers, as well as a convertible berth in the salon, comfortably accommodating up to four guests. The inclusion of a vented washer/dryer enhances her suitability for long-term cruising or living aboard. For those who value ease of handling, the pilothouse provides excellent visibility and access to port and starboard side deck doors, making docking and line handling straightforward. Additionally, bow and stern thrusters offer precise control in tight marina spaces. While the Symbol 45 Pilothouse Trawler is not designed for high-speed travel, her cruising speed of 9 knots and fuel capacity of 750 gallons make her an efficient choice for long-distance journeys. Prospective buyers should be aware of potential minor electrical quirks and the possibility of outdated electronics, common in older models. However, her robust build quality and stable resale value make her a compelling option for experienced cruisers or retirees seeking a reliable platform for adventure.
